To quote an article by Professor Henry Lewis gates:
The most comprehensive analysis of shipping records over the course of the slave trade is the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database, edited by professors David Eltis and David Richardson. (While the editors are careful to say that all of their figures are estimates, I believe that they are the best estimates that we have, the proverbial “gold standard†in the field of the study of the slave trade.) Between 1525 and 1866, in the entire history of the slave trade to the New World, according to the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database, 12.5 million Africans were shipped to the New World. 10.7 million survived the dreaded Middle Passage, disembarking in North America, the Caribbean and South America.And how many of these 10.7 million Africans were shipped directly to North America? Only about 388,000.
Many African Americans were sold into slavery by other Africans. Slavery was a common practice in Africa, so they sold slaves to the Europeans and took part in the slave trade.

Slaves would come from small villages that they lived in. African slaves came from various countries in Africa and were sold by other Africans to Europeans to be shipped to the Americas.

No, African people did not volunteer to be sold into slavery. The transatlantic slave trade involved the forced capture, trade, and transportation of millions of Africans against their will to the Americas for forced labor. The individuals captured and sold into slavery were victims of a system that dehumanized and exploited them for economic gain.
Yes, slavery was present during Elizabethan times in England. Many English merchants were involved in the transatlantic slave trade, where Africans were captured and transported to the Americas to be sold as slaves. Additionally, there were instances of domestic slavery within England during this period.

Africans were captured by other Africans, European slave traders, or Arab slave traders through raiding, warfare, kidnapping, or trading with local leaders. They were then transported across the Atlantic Ocean in brutal conditions to be sold into slavery in the Americas.
Africans who were enslaved experienced immense suffering, trauma, and loss of freedom. Many resisted slavery through acts of defiance, rebellion, and escape, as well as by maintaining cultural practices and forms of resistance. The legacies of slavery continue to impact African communities worldwide.

They sold their enemies into slavery.
Not much difference. Africans captured Africans and either kept them, sold them to other Africans, or sold them to whites.
